Posted October 19, 2014 Hello. I was wondering if anyone knew of a cpu that was thin and could fit in a laptop but still cheap and great performing enough to play games like minecraft or portal 2. If possible maybe even sonic generations! Or if you dont know then should a just use a intel pentium g3258 or a amd athlon x4 860k and also I would want a good cpu fan too! Thanks for looking at this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted October 19, 2014 You can't put a desktop CPU in a laptop... Do you want a Slim desktop. Or a laptop? 5800X3D - RTX 4070 - 2K @ 165Hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted October 19, 2014 And you can't buy off the shelf laptop coolers. The Pentium M was the same socket as the Pentium D. But that was long ago. You can buy laptop cooling pads. You can also get laptops that have full fledged 3820's, 3930K's, 3960X's and more. Please quote/tag ( Found by typing @DarrenP) In all posts directed at me. I do not check my current content.

Posted October 19, 2014 Laptop CPUs tend to be soldered in, don't they? You can't just build one and replace it like you can a desktop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
